Next week is “Sandwich Week” on Cooking Channel, which means our best chefs will be topping bread with transcendent combinations of fresh produce, succulent meats and creamy spreads each day. It kicks off Sunday night at 8pm ET with the upper crust of television specials, The Best Thing On Sliced Bread. Food writer Troy Johnson will hit five states (Georgia, Maine, Missouri, California and Oregon), seeking out the most mouth-watering sandwiches the country has to offer (like the Pork Belly Cubano from Bunk Sandwiches in Portland, OR, pictured above.)

But we didn’t think Troy should have all the fun. So we’ve put photos of our favorite sandwich recipes (including the five featured in the special) on a Pinterest board titled Best Thing on Sliced Bread. Here’s where you come in: Browse through the photos and re-pin the sandwich you like best. You can also pin your own sandwich (either homemade or from your favorite restaurant) and include the tag #BestThingOnSlicedBread. Each re-pin serves as a vote for that sandwich as the best of the group. Next week we’ll tally the repins and let you know which ‘wich made the top cut.

I hopped in a car last year with my boyfriend for a cross-country drive from Los Angeles to Atlanta. If you know me, you know the only reason I could ever last in a car that long is the promise of food.

It’s a big weekend for football fans, especially for those in New York, Pittsburgh, Chicago and Green Bay. The Jets and Steelers face off in the AFC Championship, while the Bears and Packers battle it out for the NFC title — the winners, of course, get a ticket to the Super Bowl on February 6.

Both matchups will take place this Sunday, so a hearty game-day spread is in order as you settle in on the couch for a double-header. Even if your team got knocked out already, get into the spirit and give your football-watching snacks some regional inspiration.
